The Dream!

One day I came home from school, I curled up into my comforter, and I fell asleep. I had this really cool dream. It was about me when I was all grown up. I was on the show Design Star (the show I really want to be on when I grow up). I was in the finals for who became the next design star. My opponent and I had to design two different rooms for two different people in two different houses. I got to transform a garage into a bachelor pad. There were huge orange and yellow circles on the walls and the base coat was blue. There was a long sofa with a flat screen mounted on the wall, and a snack bar in the corner. It looked spectacular!

Then the day of the winner has come and my opponent and I were standing on the platforms watching the video that had our rooms on it. When those got done I was so nervous I thought that I was going to lose because my opponent's designs were really, really good!. When the announcer says, "Congratulations Kerri, you are the winner of this seasons design star." balloons and confetti are falling down from the ceiling and my family comes out to congratulate me and my opponent. But then I woke up. I wanted to keep having that dream over and over again. I haven't had that dream since...But it was the best dream I have ever had!

my favorite designers

My favorite designers would have to be Kim Myles, David Bromstad, Vern Yip, and Candice Olsen. Kim Myles, from the TV show Myles of style; her designs are elegant and spunky, yet so put together. She is one of the people inspired me it want to become a designer.

David Bromstad is from color splash. I get all of my color coordination from him. He puts these crazy good designs together that you think wouldn’t work but they do! In every design he does he has a personalized piece of art work that he made. I think that is a really good idea.

Vern Yip is from deserving design. He designs for people who deserve design; hence the name. I think that is really sweet to do because every time he designs a new room for a family he always surprises them with doing two rooms. His designs are simple, but complex. He is excellent at putting colors for a room. He really knows what he is doing.

Lastly is Candice Olsen from divine design. Her designs are so sophisticated and elegant. She makes you feel like you live in a palace. She sticks to one simple design but makes it so much more. If I were you have my house redesigned I would choose one of these four people.
